Re: [PD] Using dual processor to manage 2 Pd at the same time

2010-08-17 Thread Mario Mora
Hi Joao

You can achieve that by starting one instance of pd in the usual way (for
audio process by example) and the other one using the terminal app , writing
there the adress to the app and starting it with the ./Pd-extended  command
by exampleit is recommended that you start the pd instace for video
(gem) with -noaudio flag or, alternatively desctivating the audio in the
menu of the app.

I have used that approach with success for audio and video processing in
real-time like this:

hope it helps

 I'm using OSX
 I want to sync 2 PD's (not 2 PD patches). One to control sound the other to
 control video (GEM).

 (your OS can tell you in which CPU a process is running, there are several
 cmd tools in linux for that)
 can OSX do it as well?

 2010/8/17 João de Brito Rocha Reis Vidigal jbvidi...@gmail.com

 Any idea on how to get the first Pd working with one  processor and the
 second with the other?

 I'm using the Arduino firmata to trigger both sound and video. I think I
 can't open twice the same port! So how can I use the OSC then to sync the
 triggering!?

 No, it doesn't mean that.

 But all the messages and signals circulate in a since thread (on a single
 cpu) unless you use special tools to split it into several threads.

 Then there is the client process, which own the patch windows and the
 main window. This runs separately.

 Also, [soundfiler], some GEM input/output classes, and much of PDP, can
 run in an alternate thread.

  Is there a way to know which processor it uses, and whether it always
 uses the same processor?

 No idea... I still run a single-core all day long.

Re: [PD] slightly off topic - interesting generative/recursive music inspiration

2010-01-17 Thread Mario Mora
if you check that video with the volume on, you will hear that the
intervalic relationships between the notes are perfect, this means that the
beginning works perfectly in conjunction with the end, and that means that
what can be melody, can also be accompaniment, so you can do any inversion
of the music and it will work as a musical piece because it is perfectly
symmetrical, to put any music whatsoever, in your words, does not guarantee
a musical result, and in fact, does not guarantee music in a coherent sense,
and obviously, does not garantee any symmetry at all. In this example, the
musical result is accomplished by laws of complex intervalic relationships
between the notes, called counterpoint, and Bach was a master on that. It is
about what you hear, not about what you see, the score is just a graphic way
of to write relations of time and frequency of a music so that can be read
and performed by a human being.


2010/1/17 Matt Barber brbrof...@gmail.com

 This is interesting, but unfortunately it isn't a correct analysis --
 for it to be a real mobius strip it would need inversional symmetry,
 not symmetry in time -- the topology of this piece does not match that
 of a mobius strip (to visualize the topology of the music itself, you
 have to imagine it being written on a transparent strip).  With an
 opaque strip, you can actually just write any music whatsoever -- this
 would have worked fine with no twists in the strip (and no music on
 the inside).

Re: [PD] [PD-announce] Pd-extended 0.41.4 released!

2009-06-10 Thread Mario Mora
Hi Hans

it seems that there is some trouble with jack on this version, on OSx 10.5.7
selecting jack as audio port causes a crash on Pd, this not happens in
version 0.40.3.
Afaik, jack (jackrouter and qjackctl) is working correctly on my system, and
i have used in live configurations without trouble.

bests,

Mario


2009/6/8 Dafydd Hughes dafyd...@gmail.com

 I know that once I worked out my own issues, the extended 0.41.4 rc worked
 fine on my eeepc 701.

 But now I want to try a build, just to see what happens. Do you think I
 should completely purge the package I have on right now?

 cheers

 anyhow, what i would be interested in: i thought that NBR is just a
 slightly modified flavour of an ordinary ubuntu release, with better support
 for various netbook hardware and slightly modified appearance in order to
 make better use of the limited screen size.

 since nobody ever cared to create a flavour of Pd that uses space more
 efficiently (and that without breaking visual compatibility to PdX), i don't
 see anything that would make a NBR deb different from an ordinary ubuntu
 deb.

 so why can't you just install jaunty package?
 (after a bit of googling i noticed that they use lpia as architecture,
 which mainly differs in optimization flags for the compiles; since (i guess
 that) nobody has cared yet to find lpia optimized flags for PdX, the
 resulting binaries will really be the same)
 there are tools for converting ordinary i386 debs to lpia, like the one
 here: http://ppa.launchpad.net/feranick/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/d/deb2lpia/

Re: [PD] [PD-announce] Pd-extended 0.41.4 released!

2009-06-07 Thread Mario Mora
Hi Hans

The Pd-0.41.4-extended version seems pretty nice,
Just noticed that the object scale , normally used for to determinate
boundaries for some input range is not available as a math object, only as a
Gem object, and with another purpose, dunno if that is because the objects
share the same name, anyway i just replace the scale object for the
range one and got the thing working, so this means than the scale math
object is no longer being used?

thanks

 There isn't currently a Jaunty Netbook Remix build machine setup anywhere,
 I didn't even know there was a Jaunty version of NBR.  I think the best bet
 would be to build it yourself, then we can post it on the download site.
  Its not hard to build on Ubuntu.

 Basically, first you just install lots of packages with
 synaptic/apt-get/aptitude

 puredata.info/docs/developer/Debian

 Then you download the source, uncompress it, and run:

   cd Pd-0.41.4-extended/packages/linux_make
   make install
   make package

 Then you will have a .deb file in packages/linux_make/build.

Re: [PD] [PD-announce] Pd-extended 0.40.3 released, dedicated to Jamie Tittle

2008-08-03 Thread Mario Mora
great job!

2008/7/30 Hans-Christoph Steiner [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 Finally, it's done!  The most polished release of Pd yet.  We are further
 refining Pd into a truly powerful and usable programming platform.

 http://puredata.org/downloads/

 This release is dedicated to Jamie Tittle, aka tigital, who recently died
 of cancer.  He was a long time and key contributor to Gem and Pd in general,
 even while he was in the hospital undergoing treatment.  He is sorely missed
 in this community, and I am sure by many others.

 Some highlights of this release:

  * more functional namespace tools ([declare] and [import])
  * new appearance designed to enhance readability
  * GLSL shader support in Gem
  * usability improvements
  * on Mac OS X, you can now build standalone applications
  * standard locations for user-installed externals
  * many bug fixes


 Here's the rough changelog:

 - next visual appearance designed for readability

 - default locations for user-installed externals, helpfiles, etc.
  GNU/Linux:  /usr/local/lib/pd-externals and ~/pd-externals
  Mac OS X: /Library/Pd and ~/Library/Pd
  Windows: %ProgramFiles%/Common Files/Pd and %UserProfile%/Application
 Data/Pd

 - lots of standard key bindings added:
 Enter/Return for OK
 Escape for Cancel
 Ctrl/Cmd-W closes all windows
 on Mac OS X, Cmd-` cycles thru open windows
 on Mac OS X, Cmd-m minimizes windows
 Ctrl/Cmd-R raises/lowers Pd window
 Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-R shrinks/grows Pd window
 Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-L clears Pd window's text console
 Ctrl/Cmd-B opens the Help Browser

 - you can now use ~ in all paths to mean home folder, and on Windows you
 can use environment variables, lie %UserProfile% in paths

 - improved Cut/Copy/Paste support for working in object and message boxes

 - fixed Cut/Copy/Paste for the Pd window's console

 - [declare] and [import] now sorted out for loading (but much work needs to
 be done before there namespace support is complete)

 - File - Save As defaults to the Home folder (~/) on Mac OSX

 - new patches default to the folder last saved in

 - included pgp_opengl aka 3dp on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X

 - 'hardware' and 'deprecated' removed from libraries loaded by default

 - On Debian/Ubuntu, the packages now install into /usr rather than
 /usr/local

 - On Mac OS X, you can now build standalone applications from the File
 menu.

 - bug fixes and clean up of [hid] and mapping externals

 - included config in Info.plist for the Spotlight Importer

 KNOWN BUGS

 - check http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker before reporting bugs

 - Escape, Enter, and Ctrl/Cmd-W don't close the Path and Startup
 preferences

 - pdp_opengl is alpha and will definitely crash Pd

 - loading pdp_opengl will crash Pd if X11 is not open before trying to load
 it

 - the GUI runs slower in some situations

Re: [PD] [OT] Ubuntu Studio and other media-related distros

2008-07-13 Thread Mario Mora
i have used dynebolic+puredyne in live situations, with really good
performance, also i have used ubuntu studio (hardy) for graphics and audio,
and for me, it works ok,
what i like:
Updated very frequently, the guys work hard fixing things and trying to
improve the distro
i like the concept of just use it, don't mess with kernel stuff and
compiling things, so you have time for the fun stuff
Apt-get works great, just search for the app, install and use it
Many of the interesting audio/video apps are ready to use
Great support from the ubuntu community
Good graphics support

what i don't like:
Sometimes things get broken when you do an update , so you have to wait for
a couple of days until a new update comes

by the way fedora/ccrma distro is solid as a rock in audio, but it lacks
good 3d support, now if you can compile the needed drivers, you should
consider it.

2008/7/13 Derek Holzer [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Hey gang,

 In a search for distraction from the project I'm really supposed to be
 working on, I decided to update my (until now stable but very outdated)
 Gentoo media editing machine. A couple days of circular package blocks,
 missing dependencies and vanishing libraries later, I'm really curious
 why I once decided it was a good idea to compile everything myself ;-)
 (Note to Gentooers: emerge --update --deep world once a month, or get
 the thing stable and never touch it again! If you wait too long, and
 your current packages go out of Portage, it can be hellish!).

 So if and when this machine is hosed, what would be a good distro to put
 on it? I don't feel much like the super-hacker I was a four or five
 years ago when I got into Gentoo, but I like a distro that I can
 configure to be extremely minimal and transparent. And what is
 absolutely necessary is that it has well-configured versions of all the
 audio softs that I depend on, such as Ardour (w/ VST support!), Jamin,
 LADSPAs, JACK, etc. Realtime/prempt kernel = A-OK. Ability to use
 PD-Extended is of course a plus, and also the ability to mount HFS+
 drives without destroying them (as Ubuntu has done to me in the past) is
 also necessary.

 I looked at Ubuntu Studio, but I wanted to ask who actually uses it.
  From the page it seems like maybe it's not well-maintained, and that's
 another requirement for me after messing around with different
 audio-related overlays for Portage that eventually get abandoned.

 If Ubuntu Studio isn't the right one, can anyone suggest another option?
 My last criteria is that it has a coherent user community and excellent
 docs (strongest point of Gentoo, and from what I recall a weak point of
 straight Debian, IMHO).

 thx + best!

Re: [PD] wierd feedback popping with pd/freebob/jack/rt

2008-05-20 Thread Mario Mora
i got the same problems since i update to hardy with pd and jack (freebob)
using my fa-66, and in general, with all the sound ... noise when the
pointer of the mouse moves a window, unstability of jack and so on,i just
use another distro for audio stuff

2008/5/20 Rich E [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Currently, Pd-0.40.3-extended from the autobuiilds.  While I think this is
 occurring on every version on Pd I have tried since I installed Hardy (which
 is alot), I should do some testing to verify that.

 Another thing; opening Audacity only cures things for a bit, until I do
 something like open another patch in pd.  Then, the glitch happens again, I
 restart audacity, and it goes away.

 I'll try some testing on 0.39 - .41 vanilla when I have a moment.

 Which version of Pd is this?  There are large differences, so you need to

 Hi,

 I have been having this problem off and on for a while, but never thought
 it would do any good to post on this forum about it.  However, I have a lead
 now.

 I have an Edirol FA-101 hooked up to pd in Ubuntu Gutsy, with the rt
 kernel.  If pd is running by itself, everything sounds great.  If jack is
 running in non-realtime and there are lots of things going on, everything
 sounds great except there are big pauses in midi/audio throughput.  If jack
 is running in realtime everything BUT pd sounds great, while pd produces
 feint pops, with feedback.

 And what I just noticed today, if I start another JACK application
 afterwards, the pops go away and everything is runnnig smooth in realtime.
 I don't know if it is just any application, but what I am explaining
 happened when I opened audacity to try to record the output of pd's
 wierdness.

 I've only had this issue with pd.  Does this make sense to anyone?

Re: [PD] pd extended on Ubuntu Hardy Heron

2008-05-05 Thread Mario Mora
Hi Francois

did you try the ubuntu repository version, with synaptic or by hand...

2008/5/5 francois labastie [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Hello!

 Does someone knows how to install puredata extended on Ubuntu Hardy Heron?

 I tried Pd-0.39.3-extended-debian-testing-i386.deb, from
 http://puredata.info/downloads, and I got Error: Dependency is not
 satisfiable: libflac7

 I tried Pd-0.39.3-extended-rc5-debian-stable-i386.deb, from
 http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers-0.39.3-extended-rc5.html, and I got
 Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libflac7 as well.

 I used to work with it on Gutsy, but now with Hardy Heron how can I do?

 Thanks a lot for your help.

 François

 you can use [hid] or [hidio] for USB input from mouse, keyboard or
 many USB devices

 you can use MIDI devices such as control surfaces with the midi pd
 objects

 you can use [gemkeyboard] or [gemmouse] for the system mouse and
 keyboard input when the gem window has focus

 you can use a second computer on a network running pd with a GUI
 interface and connect using [netsend]/[netrecieve] or one of the
 other net objects like the OSC ones

 you could build your own interface using something like the arudino

 you could devise ways for pd to respond to the audio inputs





 at least these are the ways I have done things, but there are many
 other possibilities
